In this 4-week course, you will learn how to conduct effective usability
tests in order to improve your website. You will walk through the process
of defining primary tasks and translating them into scenarios, making a
plan, recruiting participants, and conducting the actual tests. You will
learn how to analyze the results to make decisions about your website’s
information architecture, labeling, and content. You will also strategize
about how to implement affordable methods of usability testing in a
systematic and sustainable way.

This course can be taken as one of six courses needed to earn our
Certificate in User Experience (UX), but can be taken as a stand-alone
course as well.

Rebecca Blakiston is a User Experience Librarian and the Website Product
Manager at the University of Arizona Libraries in Tucson, Arizona. She
provides oversight, management, and strategic planning for the library
website, specializing in guerilla usability testing, writing for the web,
and content strategy. She has published and presented nationally on topics
including instructional design, user experience, and continuous learning.
